DA
I don't believe in heaven, I do believe in hell
GA
It's down the street from here, And we both lived there for years
DAG
We burned the calendars for warmth, And the alarm clocks just for fun
A
We closed the blinds to make goddamn sure
G
That we could never see the sun
F
You could set a watch by the bottle returns
BmGDF#
And the ashtrays overflowing on the floor
BmDGAA...
Nothing's free but time when you're so damn poor
DBm
But the past was death row, And the future's a battlefield
GA
I hope we choose the right war
DBm
Because I've been fist fighting gravity, Since the day I learned how to breathe
GA
And I still wake up On the same cold floor i fell asleep on
DAGG
So I won't, but we shall overcome someday
DAGG
I can't do it alone, but I shall be free someday
DABmG
I don't know how to live But I'm sick of learning how to die
DABmG
Vampirism is for poseurs in junior high
Trumpet x2: DBmF#mGDA
We made our own postal system, To cross the continent
GA
As long as freight trains run And loners pick up dreamers with thumbs
D
Who needs governments to get a letter to you
A
Or a mixtape to me, or a postcard to Johnstown?
G
What's a thousand miles between friends?
A
What's a friend that's not worth crossing a country?
DA
But I owe money and broken hearts
G
From Philly to Sydney and back to Vermont
D
(yeeeah) I regret a million things
GAA...
And that's only what I haven't forgot
DBm
But the past was a mine field, And right now is a prison break
GA
I hope we make it alive
DBm
When who we are doesn't stop where the law begins
GA
Then we'll storm their court houses to survive
DAGG
So I won't, but we shall overcome someday
DAGG
I can't do it alone, but we shall be free someday
DABmG
I don't know how to live But I'm sick of learning how to die
